Gotta be close to awesome – Fantastic chef with cutting edge ideas, global knowledge, fantastic meat and produce quality.
Enjoyed my fourth visit this past Friday, and although it is a higher cost restaurant, its close to becoming my favourite place in Louisville to eat.
The service is knowledgeable, superb, discrete and polite.
The "not so brown" is a great twist on the Kentucky fave, the steak is fantastic - especially considering it isnt a steak restaurant - the appetizers are from the rustical to the elegant.
The only downside I have encountered is a difficult reception area and the inability to quite eat the whole menu in one sitting.
4 stars - only my very favourite restaurant in each category gets 5 stars, but Winstons has the legs to be a 5 star very soon, Michellin should have given this place a star.
The description of it being a German Restaurant is incorrect. Should read fine dining.
quanity for quality – Winston's is fine dinning at its best. You are definently getting what you are paying for from the food right down to the service.

"FLABs is for every man who exercises to live, but doesn't live to exercise."
The idea for FLABS was conceived while Marty Kiesewetter and his brother, Marv, both of Tremont, were talking about working out on a frequent basis. Both Marty and Marv, of middle-age, belong to a local health and fitness club for tennis, but neither of them felt comfortable going to the weight room. The weight room at their tennis club is normally full of 20 and 30-somethings. They started talking about how middle-aged women have CURVES, so they decided to start their own low-key/low-expectation workouts in Marty's barn, and fittingly named it FLABS. Working out with friends is much more fun than working out alone, and three other middle-aged members have recently started to attend including Dean Grimm of Morton, Byron Rabb of Pekin, and Todd Prather of Tremont. They have all committed to one another to workout three times a week during the entire calendar year of 2009!
Marty put together the attached video to demonstrate the tremendous benefits of working out at FLABS.

Keekaroo Peanut Changing Pad
- The Sable color is a giggle exclusive.
Comfy soft and spill-proof, the Peanut changing pad offers parents the perfect spot for diaper changes, whether handling dirty diapers at home or on-the-go. With no additional sheets or pads required, it's an all-in-one changing station that wipes down easily and (bonus!) even limits bacteria growth.
Why it's a giggle pick We love that this lightweight, comfortable changing pad makes one of the messier parts of parenting a little easier — and a little cleaner!See Full Details
Meets the following giggle Criteria:

the giggle criteria: We've narrowed down the choices by picking only the best products out there. In other words: if we sell it, we love it, and we think you will, too!

Every product we offer goes through a rigorous selection process and must meet at least three of the following criteria to be included in our assortment:

Rated 5 out of 5 by Danzer Sleek, comfortable & easy to clean I love the design, color options, and comfortable material of this changing pad. The best part is it is easy to clean and sterilize after changing the baby. The sable color is the perfect color of gray - not too light and not too dark. I wasn't able to find this color anywhere else, so thank you Giggle.com! March 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by cthaxton55 Keekaroo Peanut Changing Pad Clean and sleek...just perfect for wiping a little bum! March 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MotherofTwo Fantastic Product!! I searched high & low for the gray color & this was perfect! I had a similar product for my son but it was no longer available & not in a color choice that worked for us. The ease of wiping this changing pad down & not having to fool with covers is a big plus! I highly recommend! This product is one of my favorite items for our baby! December 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by mjmbrunner Stylish change mat The peanut change mat is sleek and stylish and looks fabulous in the Giggle Exclusive color of Sable. I love that it doesn't require change covers which will only get dirty and need to be washed. If the peanut gets dirty just spray and wipe and it's clean! It's also very soft and comfortable for the baby. October 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by StephH Can't imagine using any other changing pad! We LOVE the Keekaroo Peanut changing pad. So glad we ended up purchasing it. The ironic thing is that we wouldn't have bought it had we not spotted the gray/sable color that's exclusive to Giggle. (We're not big fans of the other colors.) This pad has been great to use. If baby pees on the pad or the diaper is especially messy, we don't worry about making a mess on the pad. There's no need to change and wash any sheets, because we can just wipe the pad clean. Saves us time and extra laundry! September 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by NewBabyCraze Portable and Durable I got this because of the antimicrobial factor. Plus, I like how you don't need a changing pad cover. It is soft yet durable. It can be a bit heavy but it's not bad. The ease of washing it makes it worth the buy in my opinion. The only bad thing I have to say is how it arrived. I ordered both this and the Boon Fresh Changing Station and they arrived in a beat up box that was dented and looked like it had been kicked around multiple times. The box this product came in was beat up also and the peanut changing pad didn't even stay in the box - it popped right out! Good thing it was packaged in a bigger box along with the Boon product or else I might have received an empty box. Packaging definitely needs work. September 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by babyBaerpaw15 Good Size! I love the sable color. It was much bigger than i expected but that will probably be a good thing. I havent used it yet but i have changed enough diapers to know this will be a great product. It may cost a little more but changing pads and covers add up and anything that doesn't add to the laundry is a huge plus for me. September 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by HeatherA Easy to clean and simply amazing! I LOVE my peanut and cannot wait to use it with our first baby! I immediately returned our changing pad and changing pad cover when I first saw and purchased the peanut. It is so easy to clean by simply wiping it down vs. having to throw a changing pad in the washer every time there is a mess. I LOVE how it does not slide when you put it on a dresser or changing table. It is soft for the babies skin as well. Overall GREAT product and I love that Giggle offers the sable color which I have been looking for! September 6, 2013

Q:The description says "latex free seamless material." Could you be more specific about what material makes up the changing pad? In addition, what material, chemical, or treatment limits bacteria growth, as noted in the description?
A:Unlike traditional changing pads, the innovative Keekaroo Peanut Changing Pad is made from solid (but soft!) latex-free Polyurethane polymers. It's water resistant (fluids cannot penetrate into the pad) stopping mold and deterioration, and because the surface is solid, it limits bacteria growth. giggle recommends keeping a safe-around-baby cleaner on-hand (like giggle's Better Basics All-Purpose Household Cleaner) to quickly clean-up messes and stop the potential spread of bacteria.

Peter Ferrara, Contributor
I cover public policy, particularly concerning economics.
President Obama says that income taxes must be raised on the rich because they don't pay their fair share. The indisputable facts from official government sources say otherwise.
The CBO reports based on official IRS data that in 2009 the top 1% of income earners paid 39% of all federal income taxes, three times their share of income at 13%. Yet, the middle 20% of income earners, the true middle class, paid just 2.7% of total federal income taxes on net that year, while earning 15% of income. That means the top 1% paid almost 15 times as much in federal income taxes as the entire middle 20%, even though the middle 20% earned more income.
Moreover, the official data, as reported by CBO and the IRS, show that the bottom 40% of income earners, instead of paying some income taxes to support the federal government, were paid cash by the IRS equal to 10% of federal income taxes as a group on net.
Any normal person would say that such an income tax system is more than fair, or maybe that "the rich" pay more than their fair share. So why does President Obama keep saying that the rich do not pay their fair share? Is he ignorant? Wouldn't somebody in his Administration whisper to him that he is peddling nonsense?
The answer is that to President Obama this is still not fair because he is a Marxist. To a Marxist, the fact that the top 1% earn more income than the bottom 99% is not fair, no matter how they earn it, fairly or not. So it is not fair unless more is taken from the top 1% until they are left only with what they "need," as in any true communist system. Paying anything less is not their "fair" share. That is the only logical explanation of President Obama's rhetoric, and it is 100% consistent with his own published background.
Notice that Obama keeps saying that "the rich," a crass term implying low class social envy, don't "need" the Bush tax cuts. That is reminiscent of the fundamental Marxist principle, "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need."
Good tax policy is not guided by "need." It is guided by what is needed to establish the incentives to maximize economic growth. The middle class, working people and the poor are benefited far more by economic growth than by redistribution. That is shown by the entire 20th century, where the standard of living of American workers increased by more than 7 times, through sustained, rapid economic growth.
But President Obama's tax policy of increasing all tax rates on savings and investment will work exactly contrary to such economic growth. It is savings and investment which creates jobs and increases productivity and wages. Under capitalism, capital and labor are complementary, not adversarial, exactly contrary to the misunderstanding of Marxists. More capital investment increases the demand for labor, bidding up wages to the level of worker productivity, which is enhanced by the capital investment.
Increasing marginal tax rates on savings and investment, however, will mean less of it, not more. That will mean fewer jobs, and lower wages, just as we have experienced so far under President Obama, with median household incomes (hello middle class) declining by 7.3% (a month's worth of wages) during his first term, even faster after the recession supposedly ended in 2009. That will only get worse in Obama's unearned second term, which can only be explained as "democracy failure" analogous to "market failure."
If the tax increases are limited to those who earn $1 million or more, I don't know if that alone will be enough to create a recession, as I am certain would be the result with Obama's original policy of targeting couples making over $250,000 a year, and singles making over $200,000.
But there is so much in the Obama economic program that is contractionary. His second term promises enormous new regulatory burdens and barriers. The EPA is shutting down the coal industry, and Interior will join with it to sharply constrain oil production further, despite Obama's duplicitous campaign rhetoric taking credit for the production produced by the policies and efforts of others. I expect Obama's EPA to burden natural gas fracking until it goes the way of the coal industry as well, stealing new found prosperity for many Americans. All of this will sharply raise energy prices, which will be another effective tax on the economy.
Moreover, President Obama has said that a priority in his second term will be global warming, even though global temperatures have not been increasing for 16 years now, and the developing world led by Brazil, Russia, India and China (the BRIC countries), which are contributing to "greenhouse gases" at a much greater accelerating rate than the U.S., have rejected sacrificing any slice of their economies to that ideological phantom. While even the Democrat Congress of Obama's first term failed to adopt "cap and trade," EPA is advancing with global warming regulations that will cost the economy trillions in still another effective tax.
Then there are the onrushing regulatory burdens of Obamacare, including the employer mandate, which will require all businesses with 50 employees or more to buy the most expensive health insurance available. That will be an effective tax on employment. As Obamacare forces up the cost of health insurance, that will be still another effective tax increase on all employers already providing health coverage. Hundreds of regulations still in the pipeline under the "Dodd-Frank" legislation are already forcing the financial sector to contract, and threaten the business and consumer credit essential to full recovery.
In addition, few are adequately considering the longer term contractionary effects of the Fed's current policy mischief. For years now, businesses and investments have been launched all over the country based on the near zero interest rates, and even below zero real rates, that Fed policies have perpetuated, along with the easy free money . When those rates inevitably rise back to normal, most likely after these Fed policies have resparked inflation, the basis for those businesses and investments will be gone, and many if not most will go into liquidation, which will be highly contractionary as well.
However, I am certain in any event that the Obama tax increases will result in less revenue rather than more. Obama has been proposing to increase the capital gains tax rate by 58% on the nation's job creators, investors and successful small businesses, counting his Obamacare tax increases that take effect on January 1 as well the expiration of the Bush tax cuts. While his misleading talking points say there will be no tax increases for 97% of small businesses, that counts every Schedule C filed for every part time or hobby sole proprietorship, however marginal the earnings. The small businesses that would bear President Obama's originally proposed tax increases earn 91% of all small business income, and employ 54% of the total private sector U.S. work force, as reported in Investors Business Daily on November 9.
Over the last 45 years, every time capital gains tax rates have been raised, revenues have fallen, and every time they have been cut, revenues have increased. The capital gains rate was raised 4 times from 1968 to 1975, climbing from 25% to 35%. The 25% rate produced real capital gains revenues in 1968 of $40.6 billion in 2000 dollars. By 1975, at the higher rate, capital gains revenues had plummeted to $19.6 billion in constant 2000 dollars, less than half as much.
After the capital gains rate was cut from 35% to 20% from 1978 to 1981, capital gains revenues had tripled by 1986 compared to 1978. Then the capital gains rate was raised by 40% in 1987 to 28%. By 1991, capital gains revenues had collapsed to $34.4 billion, down from $92.9 billion in 1986, in constant 2000 dollars adjusted for inflation.
Obama's capital gains tax increase next year will reduce capital gains revenues again as well.
While some of those Presidents may have been primarily focused on social justice, do not attempt to include Johnson or Obama under that category. The prime motivation for both was the acquisition of power through control of the lower classes through government dependence.
Moreover, Obama did not inherit the worst economy since the 30's. Carter left Reagan much worse unemployment and spiraling inflation. You note 2006 as the last year in which the Federal government received 19% of GDP in revenue. You neglect to mention that was the year the deficit dropped to about $160 billion (despite "unfunded wars, tax cuts and Part D of Medicare, enacted by W Bush") and it was the year Democrats took over Congress. Thereafter, the "structural deficit of nearly $1.2 trillions a year" is the result of policies created by Democrats and defended by their Congress (including then Senator Obama). The mortgage crisis is a direct result of the Democrats and reform of the offending policies and quasi-government agencies that created the problem was actively opposed by that party. If Obama did not want to the economy to be in the dumpster when he took office, he could have voted differently.
As for the unearned re-election, the term does not dispute that millions of people made a terrible decision last November – it simply states the fact that Obama did nothing credible to deserve the country's support. Lastly, the robber barons of Pennsylvania Avenue are hardly paragons of virtue and simple logic. However, they do make those of Wall Street look like petty thieves.
Sorry for the double post – this post disappeared while I was working on it and I replaced it with the one below. Not sure what happened.
Robert: Thanks for your nice, but "very confused" reply!
1. Do you subscribe to the "47% of Dependent Americans" of Mitt Romney? If most Republicans believe in it, then they will NEVER get to the White House in the future.
All contestants to public office have a sense of acquiring POWER.
2. I disagree that Carter left behind the worst economy. Please compare and contrast the 1980s and 2008. Please have some sense of fairness in your evaluation.
3. Now you people talk a lot about Deficit and Debt when the economy is very soft (reason being the derivatives market collapse and meltdown of Lehman Bros etc). Where were you when W Bush enacted all the unfunded wars, tax cuts and Part D?
4. You seem to comment on the "terrible decision of " the millions of people! Do you really believe in Democracy and One Person One Vote Doctrine at all?
People are very well informed, and they can see through the BS the Republicans are peddling!
Wait & watch!
"Obamanomics" did not levy any new tax until 2014 for Obamacare! That too just about $100 billions a year, as per the CBO. This is to medically insure about 30 million citizens who are left out in the cold without health insurance.
The reason Obama collected the least amount of federal tax is the economy undergoes a massive structural change internally due largely to the technological innovations, global trade and the risk averse instinct of the private sector, post Lehman collapse.
Peter, please get out of the "Republican Bubble" to see the real world. Lol.
Wait & watch.
Yes, I agree we need to compare the years of Carter 1976 -1980 to the 2000 to 2008 of W Bush. Please recall Lehman was standing strong during Carter's time and is vanished at the end of W Bush! Oil shock was the primary reason for Carter's problem, while the criminal negligence of W Bush brought on us the 9/11/2001 and the reckless behavior of Wall Street brought on us the financial tsunami of 2008.
Peter, stop re-writing the known history in order to make a weak argument!
So much nonsense and so little time – Obamanomics crippled the recovery by excessive spending, excessive debt, insanely incomprehensible overregulation, perpetuating businesses that should have been allowed to die their natural deaths, poor overall leadership and the looming threat of higher taxes – you know, the ones that are going into effect in his second term.
Your bizarre understanding of economics is amusing but your attempt to re-write history is offensive. 9/11 is a direct result of feckless foreign policy and an inept dismantling of US intelligence and law enforcement policy by Bill Clinton. It is disgusting how your ilk try to say Obama is not responsible for an economy he has run for 4 years but Bush was supposed to fix a broken intelligence community overnight. 9/11 was put into place under Clinton's watch, was enabled by his downsizing of the CIA and instituting unnecessary and immoral barriers between law enforcement and intelligence agencies, was planned by a man that Clinton had multiple opportunities to capture or kill, and it was his carry-over team, particularly Richard Clark, who failed to provide any actionable warnings about the attack. That blood is on the hands of the left.
Yamaka, I'm not going to back any of this up with links because it's late, and I'm already tired, but your comments do need some more thought.
1. You do understand the context of that quote yes? He was talking at a Republican fundraiser to those about to commit money to the Republican campaign… at that point in the election, it was pretty clear ~ 47% of Americans were going to vote for Obama no matter what. He was telling those at the fundraiser that he wouldn't spend their money trying to reach those who wouldn't be reached, but instead would be focusing on those who might still vote with their heads and not their emotional short-sighted self-interest.
If you talk to an election specialist, they will tell you the rule of thumb is 80-20, 80% of the population is already decided, approximately 40 each. The election comes down to who can swing the remaining 20. At that point in the election, more than half those in the 20 had decided, and the numbers showed 7 of them for certain for Obama. There's nothing malicious or otherwise insulting in any of what he said. He used Republican rhetoric to a Republican crowd. I GUARANTEE you if Obama was taped at every one of his "should-be" private fund-raisers he'd say quite a few things that would piss off half the country too.
Get some perspective please, the world is not flat, and whining about this comment makes you sound like you believe it might be.
2. Opinions are opinions, I'm not prepared to judge until I see #'s.
3. You're allowed to disagree with Bush's policies, but he was the elected leader, "one person one vote" etc. The wars were in his opinion in the best interests of this country. You don't get to spite one presidents policies in the same post as you spite others for disagreeing with the current president.
4. re-read 3. I celebrate your ability to have an opinion. And I'm willing to listen to your beliefs and why you have them. This is an opinion article – the author has an opinion that the current president didn't deserve re-election. That's his opinion, and it is his right to state it. There is nothing in his piece advocating sedition or any other form of rebellion against the duly voted-in president, simply an opinion that said president doesn't deserve his position. I believe it's clear he DOES believe in democracy AND one person one vote. That he further holds the opinion that people didn't use their votes WELL is his right. You're allowed to disagree, that's the beauty of America!
People are not at all informed. Clearly you demonstrated that with your #1 comment. Economists seem to focus on the economy, women tend to focus on women's rights, the elderly seem to focus on issues surrounding medicare and social security. The amount of knowledge available to any given person at any given moment isn't possible to stuff into our brains, and the rate that knowledge is growing is getting faster! If you believe that people who get their information primarily from MSNBC, or Fox, or any other news network are "informed" you're clearly confused on the definition of that word. They have a VERY short period of time to give viewers the key points of a given story. Mostly because people aren't interested in being actually informed.
How much time do you REALLY believe the average American spends researching stories they heard on a news cast during an average day? I'm willing to bet it's less than a minute. Given how much knowledge it takes to fully be "informed", do you REALLY believe that American's as a whole are "informed"?!?!
People have bits and pieces and do the best they can. There are professionals whose job it is to be as informed as possible. They're called politicians. The fact that so demonstrably few are even average informed on FAR too many subjects (on both sides of the aisle) should REALLY be the thing Americans should get informed about.

Conflict brewing for over 10% of new TLDs, ICANN reveals
- 13 June, 2012 14:54
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers has released statistics about the applications for new top-level domains — so-called 'dot word' domains along the lines of .web and .bank — ahead of the unveiling of the list of TLDs applied for that will occur tonight.
Two hundred and thirty of the domains proposed by applicants will become the subject of ICANN's dispute resolution process — which involves an attempt among applicants for the same domain to come to a joint arrangement, followed by an auction if that's unsuccessful. There were 751 conflicting applications for these 230 domains in total, which in many cases are likely to involve generic suffixes like .secure.
There were 1930 applications for new domains (after refunds to participants that withdrew following a glitch in ICANN's application system); 84 of those are "community-based", with the rest being standard applications. One hundred and sixteen applications involve non-Latin scripts.
The geographic breakdown of applications is:
• 911 from North America;
• 675 from Europe;
• 303 the Asia Pacific;
• 24 from Latin America and the Caribbean; and
• 17 from Africa.
ICANN is currently proposing to deal with applications in batches of 500, a decision that has been the subject of criticism.

Brooklyn >Arts & Entertainment > Brooklyn Heights Wine Bar
50 Henry St, Brooklyn, NY | Directions 1120140.698949 -73.992406
Mon-Thu 5:30pm-11pm
Fri-Sat 11am-12pm
Sun 11am-10:30pm
Neighborhoods: Brooklyn Heights
Three Strikes... – Have been there a few times despite mediocre experiences. Guess I feel committed to supporting this place as BK Heights has such a dearth of options. Was disappointed that they don't stock even one type of Moscato and that that a pasta dish I had was mediocre frozen food at best.
Today, however, really just put a pin in my desire to ever go there again. Came in for brunch. There were about 6 people there when I arrived and 2 waitresses. It took over 7 minutes just to get a cup of coffee. 30 or so minutes later my eggs and bacon were still just a figment of my imagination while the couple next to me who arrived after me had managed to scarf down appetizers and receive their london broil and burgers (and we all know it takes longer to make a burger than some eggs). Most disturbingly, my waitress didn't seem to notice or care that I was the only one sitting there without food. When I asked her for status she said it was "coming right out" very dismissively as she proceeded to chit-chat with a table of 6 or so men who had just come in. When she finally did inquire about status from the kitchen, she and I both learned that my food was far from "coming right out" because my order somehow never made it into the computer. She then argued with me that the wait was only 15 minutes rather than 35 (trust the hungry person on this one, folks it was 35). She said the food would be made right away (clearly that statement held little credibility at this point). Didn't even offer a piece of bread to soothe the trash compactor that was my stomach rumbling and encourage me to stay. I got up and left hungry after 40 minutes of nothing. She did comp my cup of coffee.
Never again. Note to restaurant owners. Service will make or break you. Get it together. We can't care about establishments that don't care about us.
Citysearch Editorial Review – The owners of two of Henry Street's most beloved neighborhood spots--Mark Lahm of Henry's End and James Montemarano of Cranberry's Deli--have united to fill a void Brooklyn Heights' residents have felt for ages. The result is Brooklyn Heights Wine Bar, an intimate wine and tapas bar located in the space formerly occupied by Uncommon Grounds. It's both a pit-stop for tourists after a trek across the Brooklyn Bridge and a cozy yet upscale respite for the neighborhood locals. In addition to offering a varied wine list boasting 60 bottles and tasty specialty cocktails ($12), the bar also serves up reasonably priced munchies like charcuterie, crostini and cheese plates.

Wine sommeliers, move over. There's a new drink expert in town, and he's serving up water.
Martin Riese, general manager and certified water sommelier of Ray's and Stark Bar in Los Angeles, has created a water menu of 20 mineral waters from 10 countries. The water menu, which debuted August 5, is presented to diners just like a wine list or food menu.
Guests can read thorough a description on each bottle, including a detailed account of the taste, the mineral content, and the "TDS"—total dissolved solids—which, Riese says, affects the taste of the water. A low TDS means a smooth, clean drink and high TDS ensures a bitter, salty and often metallic taste.
"This is the next movement in food and beverage," Riese told TODAY.com about the water menu, which has taken him two years to develop. "It's the same way there's been a lot of attention on crafted cocktails and beer—water is the next evolution, the next step."
Riese hails from Germany, along the Danish border, and says that in his home country, learning about water is an art form (there are 580 brands of mineral water in Germany alone). He has long been passionate about water and received his Water Education certification from the German Mineral Water Association.
"Serving water in this way is not pretentious at all," he said, addressing critics. "Just go to the Shell gas station up the street … they sell 18 different brands of water! People realize they have a favorite brand. This is just presenting the water in a more formal way, while educating guests."
(Read more: Herbalife safety issue draws scrutiny)
The most expensive bottle on the water menu is $20 and made by Canadian brand Berg.
Those skeptical of how well a water menu will do with patrons may want to swallow their doubts. Since launching the water menu, the restaurant has sold out of 10 different brands.
"People are really excited about the variety," Riese said. "I thought they would go with the familiar like Perrier, but they are curious about other brands. Many women are even asking to keep the [water menu], because it has so much information in it."
But not all patrons are buying into the hype.
"I don't really go for things like this," Ronit Nabi, who was having lunch at Ray's and Stark, told TODAY.com. Because she is five months pregnant, Nabi tried the water service instead of wine, but she said it doesn't hold a candle to wine tasting: "It's cute and creative, but I can't tell the difference between different brands of water."
In the name of research, I tried several brands of water and was able to taste the difference between some of them after learning about how mineral content and TDS affect the taste of water. The 90H20 brand was remarkably refreshing, as was the French brand Badoit, but I couldn't help but notice I was particularly swayed by the design of each bottle.

Donny Deutsch: Paula Deen ruling 'doesn't help her at all'
While the experience is somewhat decadent, by its end it was clear to me that, like wines, waters from various regions can taste different depending on environmental factors.
Could this become a trend? It's too soon to tell. Last year, a water cafe opened in New York City, and there are various books and websites dedicated to pairing water with food.
(Read more: Exploding kernels of profit—Ready-to-eat popcorn!)
But Ray's and Stark is the first restaurant to create a specifically dedicated menu, full of such robust information as the source, flavor profile and background of each bottle. Upon request, Riese will also suggest pairings between specific foods and waters.
"Giving people options is what's important to me," said Riese, who aims to keep adding more water brands to his wet menu. "So far there has not been one brand that's been the most popular. People are being adventurous and trying water they've never had before. The process is fun for them."

Baby Bjorn Toilet Seat Adaptor
" I had a chance to use this seat while on vacation. It is comfortable and my son had no issues transitioning from his usual potty to 'going' on this one. No complaints. There is a built in pee guard so no spraying to worry about. The handle makes it easy to take off and on as well as hang up when not in use. It is also easy to wipe clean and even give a quick was in the shower. " --tubbytelly

" This is a great potty - bought this for DD to use at home. We had the smaller all in 1 potties at the sitter's and in the car. This one worked well for home. Great non-skid base - helped DD to feel secure when sitting down herself. Nice high back...my DD likes to lounge and read books (Everyone Poops) while on the potty - so this gave good support. The rise in the front helps when DD lounging..." --kbvr
BABYBJÖRN Little Potty - White
" I bought this potty to keep in our van to use on the go. I love it's small size and how easy it is for my tiny toddler to sit on. The one piece design is nice as well and you don't have to take it apart to clean it if not all the potty makes it into the bowl. It is a little bit of a pain to dump out though, especially for poop.

White pepper is used the same way as the black variety and enhances fresh or cooked foods with a lighter and distinct flavoring.
White pepper is a slightly milder version of the common black pod or grind. They both originate from the same berries, which are called peppercorns.
The plant, pepper nigrum, is propagated in
European cooks particularly favor white pepper for soups and sauces and prefer it as a table condiment.
White pepper can be purchased whole, cracked, or ground. Gourmet shops may carry the Indonesian variety called muntok.
Whole peppercorns are always preferred over ground or cracked.
• Fresh peppercorns can be kept for 1-2 years in a cool, dark spot. Grind as needed.
• Cracked and ground white pepper will retain top quality for about 4-6 months.
• The main reason most cooks use white pepper is to maintain consistent color in light foods. Black specks in a perfectly prepared creamy white sauce are considered distracting.
• Add to other "white" foods such as mashed potatoes or gravies.
• White pepper can also be used in marinades or added to pickling spice.
• Black pepper is the best substitute, but the differences between the two in both smell and taste are quite distinctive.

Feminist Conversations is a regular series here at Feminists for Choice. Today we are talking to Julie Stephens, author of Confronting Postmaternal Thinking: Feminism, Memory and Care, about the book and the concept of postmaternalism.
1. What inspired you to write Confronting Postmaternal Thinking?
Initially, I was inspired by re-reading Sara Ruddick's Maternal Thinking: Toward a Politics of Peace, almost twenty years after its publication. I was struck by the contrast between the wonderful promise of Ruddick's notion of maternal thinking as a different way of seeing, knowing, and acting in the world that fostered non-violence and peace, and the reality, twenty years later, of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the dominance of social policies that were cruel to those most vulnerable.

Lange's Cafe: Pipestone, MN

Lange's Cafe: Pipestone, MN

Small and picturesque, Pipestone sits in the southwest corner of Minnesota, near the South Dakota border. Pipestone National Monument is here and is one of those seldom-frequented gems in our country. We had heard of the Langes Cafe in a couple of venues. They are particularly known for their roast beef, gravy and mashed potatoes, but neither of us felt like something that heavy. My wife decided on pan-fried walleye, and I, as always, opted for the burger.
The menu described the burger as 1/3 pound of "fresh, never frozen" beef, topped with cheese and Langes' own bacon, and served on a homemade grilled bun. It comes with coleslaw and fries. It was a bad sign when the server didn't ask how I wanted the burger cooked. If the meat is fresh, it should be cooked to order. The coleslaw arrived first and was suitably creamy, but nothing to rave about. The burger arrived looking very well done, and with no sign of lettuce, tomatoe, pickles, onion or any other accompanying veggie that is usually customary with an American burger. I laced it with mustard (and later reached for the ketchup, horror-of-horrors) and took a bite. As suspected, the burger was dry and overcooked, albeit flavorful enough. While homemade, the bun was doughy and uninspiring. The saving grace was the bacon: thick sliced, smoky and flavorful. The fries were of the frozen variety, dry and fairly tasteless. Since I never use ketchup on potatoes, I was really wishing for some mayo to dip them in. But no luck.
Thinking there may have been a mistake in the kitchen, I asked to look at the menu again: sure enough, there was no mention of tomato, etc. on any of the burgers except for something called the "belt buster", which has 2/3 pound of ground beef (also overcooked, I'm assuming) and lists lettuce and tomato as being part of the deal.
My wife smugly informed me that her fish was rather tasty, and cooked perfectly. I may have muttered something about her ancestry. We got a piece of sour cream-raisin pie to go, as they are supposedly famous for it. Neither of us has ever had it, and it turns out that one should probably grow up with this item in order to appreciate it. And the meringue on top was a disaster.
I give the burger a 4/10 for the fresh ingredients and the bacon, but otherwise would not recommend going out of your way to get one.

Seems durable. But, I can't figure out how to install it. It will work for a four stroke header, but came with one small clamp, and the other four clamps are obviously for two stroke headers. So now I have to go buy some expensive stainless clamps to mount it. What's up with that?Read All Reviews

The reaction of drivers as they pass by an accident scene; to drive aimlessly while looking away from the road at something happening off road.
The accident caused a traffic jammed, which was worsened by all the passers-by and their rubber necks checking it out.

When one finds it necessary to slow down and look at the car pulled over to the side of the road, whether the reason being an accident, a cop pulling them over, their engine died, whatever. Either way, it's fucking annoying, because it causes unnecessary traffic.
Hey, what's with all this traffic?
I guarantee it's some dumbasses rubbernecking.
15 minutes later, they see a car pulled over on the side of the road, and the traffic suddenly gets better.
Damn rubberneckers!

All-Toyota Solid-Axle 'Cruiser
It seems as though every time Toyota adds a new feature to its vehicles, it takes something else away. For instance, fuel injection became common on pickups and 4Runners in 1985, and then the next year Toyota replaced the solid front axle in these vehicles with independent front suspension (IFS). Similarly, when the 100 Series Land Cruiser replaced the 80 Series 'Cruiser in 1998, a powerful V8 engine was added, but the solid front axle was no longer available in the United States. Wishing to have the best of both worlds, Slee Off-Road recently combined the best Land Cruiser parts available throughout the years into one vehicle.
Slee has built many capable FZJ80s; however, they have typically been heavy and underpowered. Strongly believing that a solid-axle swap is easier to perform than an engine conversion, Slee began looking for a reasonably priced UZJ100. Soon thereafter, a damaged version of Toyota's latest Land Cruiser was purchased on eBay. These vehicles come with a stout drivetrain and sturdy frame, but the IFS lacks the strength and articulation necessary for serious rockcrawling. In overseas markets, you can buy a new Land Cruiser with solid axles and coil springs (the 105 Series), but these are not available with a V8 engine either. Slee used the same basic suspension design found on the 105 Series and earlier 80 Series Land Cruiser for its latest project. The new front suspension uses Slee 6-inch coil springs and prototype Slee shocks intended for an 80 Series. The coils and shocks are mounted using a combination of Toyota OEM parts and custom bracketry. Joe Risavi of Slee Off-Road did all of the design and fabrication necessary to clear 39-inch BFGoodrich Krawlers. A Slee adjustable Panhard rod and billet-steel control arms locate the axle and are also 80 Series components that Slee produces. Using off-the-shelf parts made the axle swap more economical and less complex than using a four-link and coilovers. The drawback, however, is that overall articulation will not match that of a four-link.
The suspension is connected to a custom front axle from Diamond Axles. An FJ80 front axle was considered; however, it is 5 inches narrower than the 100 Series rear axle. Additionally, the 8-inch ring gear found in the 80 Series front axle is only marginally strong enough for the weight and power of the UZJ100. Instead, Diamond Axles made a special housing to match the width of the stock rear axle and accept a rear third member from an 80 Series Land Cruiser. This third uses a 9-1/2-inch ring gear and considerably larger bearings than the 8-inch third member. Diamond makes custom axles in any width or differential offset, and with the outers the customer wants, and can accommodate any dropout third member from Suzuki Samurai to Toyota 4Runner to Ford 9-inch. The housings all use 3/8-inch-wall tubes and fully welded, CNC bent centersections with 1/2-inch-thick mounting flanges. For this project, 80 Series Land Cruiser knuckles, hubs and brakes, and Newfield chrome-moly Birfields are used in conjunction with custom-length 4130 chrome-moly inner axles from Diamond.
Steering duties are handled by an FZJ80 steering box added to the plated 100 Series frame. The 80 Series steering box utilizes a forward-facing pitman arm (like an International Scout) that provides additional clearance between the steering components during suspension compression. The box was drilled and tapped to power a PSC 8-inch-stroke hydraulic ram, and a PSC steering pump is mated to the engine with a PSC undersize pulley. A 0.250-inch-wall drag link connects the steering box to the axle with 3/4-inch PSC rod ends. A matching tie rod is connected to Slee high-steer arms and secured in double-shear mounts for added strength. The stock tie rod on an 80 Series Land Cruiser sits behind the axle and under the high-pinion differential, but that configuration was not possible with either the larger, low-pinion third member or the PSC hydraulic ram.

The volunteers of Musicians On Call's Bedside Performance Program may not have gone through med school, but that doesn't mean they're not healers. In fact, in some cases the responses they're able to elicit from their small hospital-room audiences—a smile on a stress-racked face, a foot moving ever so slightly to the music—are enough to make most doctors jealous.
The concept is as simple as it is unconventional: a volunteer knocks on a hospital door and asks if the room's occupant would like to hear some music. Patients who agree are treated to a brief private concert, a respite from the anxiety and monotony that can characterize even brief hospital stays. These miniature performances are so effective that in its 14 years of existence the organization has garnered support from celebrities across the musical spectrum and has grown to include branches in six cities: New York, Nashville, Los Angeles, Miami, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. Through these branches, it's arranged for more than 400,000 patients, family members, and caregivers to rest their minds and recharge their spirits through the power of live music.
Live music, however, isn't the only salve in Musicians On Call's arsenal. Hospitals in all 50 states, as well as in Puerto Rico and Ireland, have received comprehensive CD libraries, as well as CD players, as part of the organization's Music Pharmacy program.

Pete Lawson's passion for the martial arts is more than 30 years old, reaching all the way back to when he took his first karate lesson in Jamaica when he was 13 years old. His love for the discipline blossomed, eventually earning him five black belts, a spot in world tournaments, and the opportunity to spar against master martial artists. He also studied Brazilian jiujitsu under renowned master Renzo Gracie, one of the sons of Brazil's famed family of martial artists. As a believer in the saying "to whom much is given, much is required," Lawson decided to put his accolades and experience to good use founding and teaching at his own academy, Brooklyn Martial Arts. Today, he offers classes for all levels of Brazilian jiujitsu and mixed martial arts, preparing students for everything from self-defense to competition.
Lawson also imparts lessons of discipline and perseverance to little ones in kids' classes, using martial arts as a platform to improve their schoolwork, teach them nonviolent ways to deal with bullies, and strengthen their listening skills by having them perform pushups with their ears. They even host birthday parties for kids, where the birthday boy or girl cuts the cake with a real sword and competes in fun and friendly martial-arts-based games and activities.
From a stone mosaic that lined the floors of a fifth-century synagogue to the final rhyme spit out by a Jewish hip-hop artist, the span of The Jewish Museum New York's collections is as diverse as it is long. What began in 1904 with 26 artifacts has blossomed into a collection of 27,000 paintings, sculptures, and multimedia exhibits that dovetail into a collage of Jewish culture and identity from across centuries and continents.
The centerpiece of the museum is Culture and Continuity: A Jewish Journey, a permanent exhibit teeming with artifacts, videos, and art that collectively celebrate Jewish identity and the culture's ability to persevere through sometimes tragic circumstances. Artists—from 20th century French master Édouard Vuillard to contemporary American painter Kehinde Wiley—enliven the galleries in rotating exhibitions.

Interactive exhibits such as the Archeology Zone bring kids within earshot of ancient times as they don ancient costumes and weigh, magnify, and analyze vessels just like anthropologists or careful ancient housewares shoppers. Family activities include holiday-themed art classes and workshops, and The Wind Up series invites adults into the museum for an after-hours menagerie of cutting-edge music, film, and theatre. After a day of soaking up history, attendees can nosh at Lox at Cafe Weissman, a certified-kosher cafe whose stained glass windows shine a light on the edible portion of the Jewish journey.
Since 1861, the Buffalo Society of Natural Science has culled more than 700,000 specimens and artifacts from around the world. These treasures now reside in the Buffalo Museum of Science which opened its doors in 1929. The museum allows visitors to explore anthropology, paleontology, and zoology, with an emphasis on the Greater Niagara region.
Special exhibits inspire curiousity in guests by exploring the world around them through hands-on education. Nano, for example, explains the basics of nanoscience and the way it impacts our lives. Opened in March 2012, the Explore YOU health science studio teaches visitors about their own bodies as they study recent medical technologies that help keep the human race healthy. Our Marvelous Earth, on the other hand, focuses on geological phenomena, extreme weather, and alternative forms of energy via displays and interactive exhibits where guests will have a chance to experience tornado-force winds. The newest exhibit to explore is In Motion which motivates children to learn how things move by interacting with gravity machines, car races, and a fluid dynamics simulator. Elsewhere, Seymour (a 10-foot tall mastodon) and Stanley (a 16-foot long albertosaurus) give kids a glimpse of some really, really, really old bones. For a more relaxing experience, visitors can check out the National Geographic 3D Cinema presented by M&T Bank for rotating titles. During the next few years, the museum will continue to add new exhibits and improve others with interactive technologies.
When Marina Lisser was 14, she decided to take up dancing, despite the fact that in her native Russia, she was considered much too old to start. Firmly flouting social convention, she thrived, competing at the professional level and landing a fifth-place finish in the European Cup finals. Eventually, she went on to earn a master's degree in Dance Forms and write a dissertation on the psychology of competition.
But none of that prepared her for the shock that awaited her when she landed in New York City to work for Fred Astaire Dance Studios in 1993. She hadn't realized she'd be teaching a totally new kind of student: adult amateurs. She'd only taught professionals and children who wanted to dance for a living. If 14 was too old to start dancing in Russia, how would she teach adults in America?
Through trial and error, she figured it out by ignoring, according to a feature in Democrat and Chronicle, whatever holds her students back. "I'm one of those horrible Russian teachers," Marina confessed. "We want what we want; there is no such thing as limits."
Today, she and her staff of instructors specialize in two styles: American Smooth and Rhythm, and International Standard and Latin. Students learn to waltz, tango, and foxtrot atop the ballroom's sprung wood floor, which cushions feet and joints, while wall-length mirrors help them self-correct their form. In addition to teaching social dance skills and helping affianced couples prepare for their first dance, the instructors also ready competitive dancers to take first place medals in everything from cabaret dancing to swing, often by deftly prancing over the laser security systems that guard them. Marina is certified in dance therapy, as well as social and competitive wheelchair dancing, to make dance accessible to everyone.
Strongman competitor William Harris opened his gym to help exercisers achieve ultimate physical conditioning with an innovative approach to fitness that eschews the mirrored walls, isolated machine workouts, and pie-eating competitions of standard gyms. His cadre of personal trainers—most of whom are certified Level 1 CrossFit coaches—draws on real world athleticism: trainer Phaidra Knight was named the women's' rugby player of the decade 2000–2009, and Rob Gutierrez works as a physical trainer for the NYPD. For CrossFit sessions, certified trainers design intense, ever-changing workouts that safely push members while providing motivation and support. Classes rotate through various challenges such as calisthenics, weight lifting, kettlebells, and sprinting, relying on both intensity and variety of motion to improve comprehensive fitness. To bolster long-term health, coaches dispense nutrition tips that keep bodies fueled and give clients the tools to spur fat loss and muscle gain. The results build bodies that function in real-world tasks, such as running to catch a bus, lifting a sack of dog food, or throwing a discus and riding it to work.

Earn More
ClickBank pays some of the highest commissions of any affiliate network in existence. We encourage our product creators to set their commission level high so that they attract more digital marketers.
Unlike some advertising networks that force you to take any ad they select, you always get to select the products and offers that appear on your site. That means you can cherry pick the offers that are paying the highest commissions and the offers that are most likely to appeal to your audience. ClickBank has an online marketplace containing tens of thousands of products that you can choose to promote, so you're sure to find something that will appeal to your site visitors or followers.
Thanks to ClickBank's HOPLINK™ tracking system, we'll be able to tell when a customer purchases something after clicking on your link–even if they don't purchase right away. In fact, you'll get paid a commission if the purchase happens as much as 60 days after the initial click on your site. We've built our reputation by paying digital marketers on time. You can opt to receive checks as often as every week, and direct deposit is also available.
Many of the information products available for sale through ClickBank are sold on a recurring subscription basis. These are some of the greatest opportunities for digital marketers because you can continue earning money month after month, year after year, long after the original sale. As long as the customer continues the subscription, you'll continue getting paid.
You can choose to promote products that offer customers upsell options as part of the purchase process. This means more value for your customers, and more money in your pocket.
Our unique joint venture program allows you to split your earnings with other ClickBank digital marketers or vendors, if you choose. For example, you could mentor another digital marketer in exchange for a cut of their sales. Or you could partner with another digital marketer on a joint marketing campaign and split the proceeds. You're in control, so you can set up the joint venture deals and payment sharing contracts that work for you.

Jewelry >James Douglas Jewelers
Watch Repair Service – I commented below on the person saying about there worst service. I have had three things fixed there and they were always perfect. I was recommended by them by two other people and I understand that they do all the time repairs for the Soldiers and Sailors Musuem. Beware of bogus negative reviews. James Douglas Jewelers treated me great!!
Worst Service – This jewler took my watch for a simple timing adjustmtent. The first time it came back with more timing issues. After a second time almost five weeks in his hands, the watch was again worse than before. He refused to try a third time and also refused to refund my money.
Thinking there was a more serious problem with watch, I sent it to the manufacture and it was returned, no charge, and keeps perfect time. Only needed adjustment.
selection is great, jeweller terrible – I went to James Douglas Jewelers in Aug of 2007 (located off of Golden mile highway). They have a nice show room and a night sales woman. I had some work done to one of rings and one of my necklaces. The work was horrible. I have talked with several friends and they all say the same thing.
Basically if you are looking to get something original, check them, out, just don't have their jeweler go anywhere near your stuff. There are several other jewelry repair places in the area that much much better! avoid James Douglas' jeweler at all cost!
Unique Jewelry – I have purchased several jewelry pieces from James Douglas. The service is wonderful and the items are one of a kind. You can stroll through your local mall and look in the jewelry stores and see the same thing in every store. At James Douglas you will find items that you do not see everywhere else. There is a wonderful selection of estate pieces as well. I storngly reccommend James Douglas Jewelers as your first stop when looking for unique pieces

January 23, 2013—A National Geographic explorer tries to understand the delicate mechanisms that make lying a wild success among plants. (Video courtesy Jacky Poon, www.jackypoon.org , Tim Laman and Ed Scholes.)
How far would you go to reproduce? Would you disguise yourself as someone else?
I'm Lucie McNeil, and this is National Geographic On Assignment—your link to thousands of Nat Geo expeditions around the globe.
Today, we're off to the cloud forests of Northeastern Ecuador where National Geographic's Bitty Roy studies orchid species that look and smell like nearby mushrooms.
Nature has its imposters—like the milk snake posing as the deadly coral snake—and
even plants are known to mimic other species.
Bitty thinks the mimicking orchids are trying to attract a particular fly, which helps the plants pollinate. These flies—usually attracted to the mushrooms—help spread
the orchid's pollen, thereby aiding reproduction.
Orchids are plentiful here, so the fakery is paying off.
That's National Geographic On Assignment—your link to our Explorers.

Poudre Valley Health System announced today it will construct a state-of-the-art cancer center around existing oncology services on the Harmony Campus in Fort Collins.
The new cancer center design will deliver "one-door" access by integrating the majority of cancer care in the one building. Service integration is beneficial for people affected by cancer because it promotes a team approach to care planning and makes treatment less complex to manage and more accessible for patients. Different specialists involved in the treatment of cancer will also be accessible in the new center, so treatment planning and consultation can be more collaborative.
"The goal has always been to build a better cancer care experience and this new location will do that and more," said JoAnn Lovins, director of oncology services at Poudre Valley Hospital. "With this approach, we sustainably repurpose our existing clinic space and focus our additional investment and resources on improvements in patient-centered design and technology advancements to make life with cancer better."
The location change will offer easier patient access by consolidating the majority of cancer care into one site. The new location will adjoin the Cancer Center of the Rockies and a $7.1-million expansion of a radiation oncology department that will be completed in January.
[VIDEO: Why it's important for patients to have local access to cancer treatment.]
Earlier plans proposed building a new standalone building at what is now open space southeast on the PVHS Harmony campus. Outfitting existing space will cost less than a new standalone building while doubling the clinical area currently dedicated for cancer services and, with construction slated to begin in April, speed up the center's opening.
Services and design features at the new cancer center will include a dedicated entrance and public area, medical oncology, radiation oncology, an infusion center and a survivorship center. The new survivorship center will offer cancer rehabilitation services, a conference and education center and complementary therapy suite, and will centralize the services of patient navigation, oncology social work, clinical research and cancer program administration. Plans also include flexible space for future growth.
The following treatment, support and survivorship services will be provided in the new cancer center:
"We're bringing all the cancer-related services together for patients and families, so they can feel completely supported and confident about what's happening to them during a very challenging time," said Ruth Lytle-Barnaby, director of the Poudre Valley Hospital Foundation.
Dr. Miho Scott, a medical oncologist with Cancer Center of the Rockies, said the new center will be an improvement for all involved. "When I can see my patients in one environment dedicated to connecting all the experts involved in their cancer care, I know those patients will have a better experience overall."
Since June of this year, the PVHS radiation oncology department on Harmony campus has been under an expansion and renovation to include a second treatment vault and a new TrueBeamTM STx, a state-of-the-art linear accelerator that will be Colorado's first. The project is slated for completion in January and will more than double service capacity for radiation oncology.
"Our local need for more radiation oncology services made that a fast-track project for completion as soon as possible," said Kevin Unger, Poudre Valley Hospital president and CEO. "Once we started that response, the logical next step was to look at that location for our cancer center as a whole."
Unger said the repurpose plan costs less than estimates to build a free-standing cancer center on the Harmony campus. The new plan for the cancer center will add approximately 24,000 square feet of new construction to the existing 20,000 square feet presently dedicated to cancer services on the Harmony campus. In all, the new PVHS cancer center will be 43,450 square feet.
Design planning for the new cancer center will start in the next two weeks and is expected to be completed in June. Construction is slated to begin by August, with the project completed by September 2013.
PVHS estimates the cancer center costs for the new plan to be $17.5 million, which includes $7.1 million PVHS already invested in its radiation oncology department expansion. The Poudre Valley Health System Foundation will continue with Engage in life, its fundraising campaign for the new cancer center. All funds raised will go toward the survivorship center at the new location. Based on the new plan, the PVHS Foundation needs to raise $2.2 million to reach its total contribution goal of $4.1 million.
PVHS has been expanding its inpatient and outpatient cancer treatment and support services. Inpatient cancer treatment was added at the Medical Center of the Rockies in the past year. Inpatient cancer care was previously provided only at Poudre Valley Hospital in Fort Collins. With the employment of Greeley Medical Clinic physicians beginning in 2010, the PVHS cancer program also extended its medical oncology clinics and outpatient infusion centers to Greeley and Loveland, in addition to its existing Fort Collins medical oncology and radiation oncology services.
"We're investing in the integration of cancer services on the Harmony campus in response to community needs and projected growth over the next 10 years," said Unger. "Our new plan also factors in our growing regional cancer service, in that much of the improvements at the new center will be linked among all of our medical oncology clinics and infusion centers."
"We recognize this as our chance to really deliver for the cancer community as a whole, and we're excited to be able to do that."
University of Colorado Health employees dedicate themselves to providing patients and other customers with world-class care and service. Outside organizations recognize that, calling University of Colorado Health's hospitals some of the best in Colorado and even the best in the nation. Some of those accolades are listed below:
